Two people shot by immigration officers in Portland, OR

 Two people shot by immigration officers in Portland, OR. A man and a woman were shot by ICE officers yesterday in a car in Portland and taken to the hospital with injuries, authorities said. The Department of Homeland Security said the car’s passenger was associated with the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang and that the driver had tried to run immigration officers over. Portland Mayor Keith Wilson called on ICE to cease operations in the city until an investigation is completed. The shooting comes a day after a federal immigration officer fatally shot a 37-year-old woman, Renee Nicole Good, in Minneapolis. Local officials said video evidence contradicted DHS’s claim that the shooting there was in self-defense. Minneapolis Public Schools late Wednesday announced the cancellation of classes for the rest of the week as anti-ICE protests swelled in response to the shooting, although the protests have reportedly remained peaceful. Meanwhile, Minnesota officials said they were being blocked from accessing evidence by the FBI, which has assumed control of the investigation into the shooting.
